Control apparatus for a tape recorder includes a Central Processor Unit (CPU) and a Control Panel having data entry switches, mode selection switches, speed selection switches, a multiposition function select switch and other controls and a display, all of which communicate with the CPU. The system enables the operator to enter commands to be executed by the CPU in controlling the tape transport at predetermined footage locations on the tape (such as Beginning of Data or End of Data) or at a predetermined value of parameters, such as tape pack diameters of the reel being emptied or filled (Beginning of Tape or End of Tape). The operator may enter data to set or change such locations or other parameter; and he may change commands in the CPU via the data entry switches. The operator may retrieve data or command signals from the CPU and view them on a display. A footage indicator is stored and continually updated in the CPU, and it may be changed to any desired footage setting by the operator. A wide range of operating speeds may be selected in the various modes of operation. Actual operating speeds during start-up and reversals are under program control until the speed set by the operator is reached. Under control of the CPU and at the direction of the operator, the system may thus be programmed to execute any one of a number of commands at predetermined but settable footage locations or tape pack dimensions.
